Three hours or so, with some clean-up and simplification at home.
Christie and I met up at Art Center to paint in their Friday evening workshops. We had made a deal earlier to teach each other our fortes, so tonight I gave her pointers on traditional painting in oils, and she let me borrow her laptop for an attempt at a digital black-and-white study from life! Yeah!
I got teased by some of the old timers in there for betraying the "cause", and lots of curious on-lookers came over to see what I was doing. I'm kind of surprised this is a big deal to everyone, and sort of shocked that more people aren't doing it!
Oh, and sorry for the lack of updates lately. I've been kind of lazy in photographing my work, but I haven't been idle at all, and am constantly drawing and painting. I'm currently working on a couple of illustrations for competitions. I'll post those lickety-split.

Good stuff Sherwin! I was having a really tough time with her today, I rarely get to paint dark skin tones so it was a learning experience.

Me too!! I was shocked! Especially hearing all the sayings that people are starting digital way too early and not doing enough traditional, etc... I always thought ACCD was really digital and tech savvy. :O
But yeah, that was an awesome Friday. I learned a lot! Thanks! and lets do it again sometime (=
